I bought this reissue in 84 for $4. I think this is the first time I have listened to it! Classic Mulligan/Baker Quartet hits from Pacific Jazz label on side A. They are remixed adding a little reverb to some tracks to differ from the original versions.  B side is Desmond leading with Mulligan, Baker, Barney Kessel riding along, some Baker solos, with Brubeck rhythm section, and a choir humming harmony on some. Kind of a weird record, but very good music.

Mine is a reissue, but has original liner notes from the Desmond session, written by Paul at 30yo, in 1955. A witty guy.

Clare and the Reasons

System consists of an amp a preamp, 2 speakers a turntable and a phono preamp, Also some cables and power cords and a really cheap cd player.

Hey Rich - I got that on vinyl also, and I kinda enjoy it in the right mood.

You gotta really love Baker to dig this one. Not his greatest playing, lots of treading water for bucks, from everyone. But it's happy easy music nevertheless. on LP

Yeah me too. I judge trumpeters too harshly. My dad loves any/all Baker, I think he gave me this one.

Hey Gene, I was listening to this last night,

Yes I like Bach but not familiar with this young lady.

Steve Ricks' PBS travel show showed Morrison's gravesite on the show this week. It is still a popular tourist spot.



After previous headstones and busts were vandalized and stolen, his father placed a plaque on Jim's grave, in Greek translated literally  to mean "according to his own demons," usually interpreted to mean 'true to his own spirit.'
